We have asked for updates on Libbie. Last July on her 4th Birthday they said she weighed 30 lbs.I am curious to see how much she has gained. We have been saving all of Kimmie clothes.
The Waiting Child
I saw youmeet your child today
You kissed your baby joyfully
And as you walked away with him
I played pretend you'd chosen me.

I'm happyfor the baby yet inside
I'm aching miserably
I want to plead as you go by,
"Does no one want a cild of three?"

I saw you meet your child today
In love with him before you met
And as I watched you take him out
I knew it wasn't my turn yet.

I recognize you from last year!
I knew I'd seen your face before!
But you came for a second babe.
Does no one want a child of four?

I saw you meet your child today
But this time there was something new
A nurse came in and took MY hand
And then she gave my hand to you.

Can this be true? I'm almost five!
And there are infants here you see?
But then you kissed me and I knew
The child you chose this time was me.
